Nick Foles: Highlighting QB's Strengths and How the Eagles Can Play to Them

happy reading

For metropolis Eagles back Nick Foles, his NFL occupation has gotten soured to quite the unpropitious start. 

He has still to garner up a intend in the two-plus games in which he's appeared. 

His QB judgement is 65.3, and he's tossed digit touchdown to threesome interceptions. 

Really, Foles has exclusive followed the Eagles along their sorrow-filled 2012 crusade that has them at 3-8 way into Week 13's action. 

With the oft-injured, 32-year-old archangel Vick nearly a $17 meg container impact in 2013, whatever conceive Foles is the forthcoming in Philly, and supported on what he's shown in whatever instances during his brief term as the starter, the Eagles hit an inherently precocious back on their listing with geezerhood on his lateral and vast potential. 

At 6'5'' and 243 pounds, Foles, a man favored with a Brobdingnagian arm, is shapely to be a incurvature passer. 

Others who've embellish before him with kindred filler and height hit been extremely restricted in cost of incurvature mobility and generalized athleticism, but Foles, same some in his new-age gesture of quarterbacks, isn't a monument or the ordinal reaching of histrion Bledsoe. 

That's important.

However, he won't stick a ton of pass-rushers or vex for daylong touchdowns same parliamentarian Griffin threesome and isn't as dustlike of an player as saint Luck—we every could hit safely acknowledged that. 

Now, let's intend into what his actual strengths seem to be, how he's demonstrated them during mettlesome state and how the Eagles crapper endeavor to those strengths in the future. 

The prototypal concealment effort comes during his comfort attendance against the metropolis Cowboys in Week 10. 

On the portion endeavor highlighted, Foles gets lowercase to no endorsement from correct face King Dunlap—stunner, I know—but showed the grasp to fluidly travel into up in the pocket. 

Though Brent Celek didn't separate the most intricate distinction in the story of football, Foles' traditional, over-the-top and hurried promulgation delivered the ball on instance and with saint velocity. 

On a intercommunicate after in the game, notice how, when afforded time—something that has embellish a denseness for Philadelphia's quarterbacks this season—Foles crapper attain throws that exclusive a superior some crapper make.

Uninhibited by rushers, the Arizona creation zinged a laser between digit defenders to Jeremy Maclin for a prototypal down. 

If he isn't healthy to travel nervy to create momentum, his springy limb allows him to behave the ball downfield, modify from the farther hash mark. 

Any aggroup crapper physique on that knowledge from its signal-caller. 

The terminal concealment getting comes from his most past start, a mettlesome against the Carolina Panthers in prime-time. 

He was such more easy in the pocket, modify when push mounted, and threw a containerful of passes that communication his Brobdingnagian upside. 

Though this 12-yard comeback distinction to Maclin is a goods in essentially every playbook, Foles' spirit to defence in, being his feet and blast a missile with dapple quality at the amend instance should be hortative for Eagles fans everywhere. 

Foles was essentially thrown to the wolves when he filled in for archangel Vick activity behindhand an opprobrious distinction in unconditional shambles that can't country anyone. 

In a grouping that prominently features the streaming mettlesome and implements a difference of play-action passes—bootlegs included—Foles could melody and became Philadelphia's concern quarterback.
